Where did you camp, and what did you think of it?

Is SC 95 really that bad? Is there a good alternate route to bypass 95?
I don't see one on the map.

I didn't even take a camera. On the trip down I stayed at New Green Acres campground, Walterboro,
SC. It was just at 500 miles from home, which is what I figured was a decent day's drive.

The campground wasn't anything special, but the sites were all pull-through, and quite level. I just
left the trailer hooked up so I could get an early start.

There was a group of bicyclists staying there for the night - maybe fifteen or so, male and female,
late teens or early twenties. They were in tents, and I commented to one of them that it was going
to be mighty hot in the tents. She told me they were headed to San Diego, by bike. This was their
first night on the road. They were going to take the southern route the whole way across because it
was flatter than heading up north.

More power to 'em!

I have made that trip many times, before and after I-95. The
interstate is about it. You can do 301 or the 15/17 coastal route but
both are slow with a town every few miles.
I suppose you could take 85 out of Richmond, to Atlanta and 75 down to
the Fla Turnpike to Mouseville but that is a lot longer.

Oh well! I do have air ride. Hope it keeps the DVD where it belongs.

I try to avoid I-95 between Fairfax County and Richmond, Virginia. We
take 301 south from Waldorf and then pick up the Richmond bypass and get
on I-95 south of Richmond. Route 301 is a pretty decent drive. I-95
through North Carolina isn't bad. We gas up and hit the pit stops before
we get into South Carolina so, hopefully, we don't have to spend a
dollar in that state. It also seems that I-95 in South Carolina is not
well-maintained.

Funny (strange) that you claim that lefties are the ones that have a heart and want to help their fellow man, but when you purposefully don't spend your tourist dollars on that I-95 corridor, you're hurting exactly the ones that need help the most.

For you, politics trumps compassion.

While traveling the I-95 corridor, we gas up and stop for meals and
sometimes lodging just about everywhere *except* South Carolina. I
wouldn't spend a dime in Texas, either.

As I said, for you, politics trumps compassion. You want to think you're hurting those state governments. You don't give a damn about the people and communities struggling to make it, depending on the very businesses you don't patronize.

It defines you. A smug, arrogant, and shortsighted liberal.

Odd, I've never seen anyone (business) in a 'busy' tourist trap that was hurting for lack of tourist dollars...

I see no reason to support backwards, racist, anti-government.
anti-woman, anti voters' rights states like South Carolina or Texas with
tourism business.

The area of SC that I-95 passes through is an economically depressed area. It's pretty much an interstate highway with nothing around it. To intentionally pass through it without spending any money is withholding dollars from people that need it, and rely on it for their livelihood. To do that because of some misplaced political alignment is heartless.
